come to the writer's knowledge. The
destrtyers in this case were Captain
Walter s. Green, of Life Saving Sta
tion No. 5, Long Branch, and Mr..
Bright. These two shooters live on
opposite sides of a large pond, and
are on the constant watch for birds of
any kind that may come in from the
sea to rest. Early one morning Mr..
Bright heard distant but vigorous
honking, He soon saw flock of
seven geese flying in toward the pond.
Quickly getting his gun and some
heavy cartridges, he hastened down to
the edge of the pond, keeping himself
hidden behind heavy hedge. As
soon as he had selected his position,
he uttered vigorous honk, to which
the leader of the incoming flock re-
sponded. Flying low, they sailed
majestically in over the opposite shore,
a hundred and fifty yards away from
Mr.. Bright. They were evidently
weary, and anxious to settle down in
the smooth waters of the pond. Sud-
denly out of the tall marsh grass on
the shore opposite Mr.. Bright, two
puffs of blue smoke and two booming
reports rolled out. The leader of the
flock folded his wings and fell to the
ground dead. Mr.. Bright then knew
for the first time that Captain Green
was at hand. The birds swerved from
their course and flew toward Mr.
Bright, who easily killed the second
bird. Both he and Captain Green did
not cease honking, and the birds. after
going away to a considerable distance,
sailed back again. passing over Mr..
Brights head at some height. With
his heavy gun he killed two of them.
when they circled and swept across
the pond, where Captain Green killed
two more. The remaining bird, which
had been wounded by scattering shot.
made "A hard struggle to rise to safe
height. Captain Green hastily slipped
in cartridge and took long shot.
A few feathers fell from the bird, and
he few across the pond. Mr. Bright
then got a long shot at him, breaking
his wing and bringing him down"
